View Full Version : Zombie game idea

I am determined to make this game idea come true when I get older.

So I noticed how there are tons of zombie games, but none that is truly free roam. Where you can do absolutely whatever you want.


My game idea is making a sandbox type game mode and a campaign. In the sandbox, you get to pick from 3 cities, Hollywood/LA/Beverly Hills, Las Vegas, and New York City. At first, it shows a cinematic clip of a guy you are going to play, and it shows life before the zombie outbreak. Then it shows the outbreak and how all of his family dies except him. He hides in his house the whole time until a group of 5 other guys breaks in and they offer if he wants to join their team. So they go around the city collecting food, clothes, ammo, weapons etc. and like in LA there would be different territories rampant of zombies and others that different factions own. Like human only zones that are protected. You and your team, if you want can go into the factions and stay there or you can go out into the different areas of LA like Hollywood spots or the mansions of Beverly Hills. If you are apart of a faction, they may require you to do different goals such as gather food, get clothes, or search for survivors. The game would be an ultimate free roam, where if you want, you can go into the different hotels/casinos/motels/stores/houses and take what you want or basically live there. There may be random events that happen, such as a complete take over of a faction from zombies and instead, zombies are a tiny bit smart. Like they could become immune from certain weapons if they are used to much (like if you use one weapon the whole game, and never switch it up, they can become immune to it). And you basically become the leader of your group, and you can pick what members of your group are (medic, heavy gunner, sniper, scout, etc). So that's my idea? Anyone else think this would be an awesome game?

Edit:
It would take place in the future, well semi future, like 30-40 years from now. So hotels and casinos and all that can get energy from the sun, snd if you make constant noise in a specific spot, zombies will be attracted to that spot.

Is it played online? How big are the maps? Do you have to fight actual Online people? Is it free? Where do I get the game?

I already went on its site, but didn't get much info.

Do you automatically join a clan or do you have to make your own group or have friends?

There is also Dead frontier. But it has an arcade feel to it.

Hey! :shock: That's borderline rude! First you send me a nastygram for being rude and then you post this? Talk about a double standard.
